Q: AGAIN I AM NOT STARTING A BUSINESS. YOU WILL NOT BE MAKING A SALE OFF OF ME I am wanting to find out if I can have my photography studio based out of my home in OK. I'm 70 years old and want to start a photography bus in Livermore, Colorado. I will have a small studio out of my home and do location pics near my home. What licenses do I need. Thank you, Brenda Yes. Im trying to read it but you keep messaging taking me back to the bottom yes I am sure, however do I need to do a DBA rightnow can i do it at a later date? Starting Photography Business. I am a photographer. I will provide a service then sell items such as prints, albums, and gifts . I am starting up a small photography business and I need to get a business license and tax I.D. I registered a sales tax I.D. today through this website license I need and if the tax I.D. I registered for is the same thing as a sellers I.D.Abby . Sole proprietor, no employees, photos will be taken on location but edited and sold out of my home. I am a portrait and wedding photographer. I am a photographer and have a website I will advertise my business and charge to take pictures of clients on location or out of my home.

A: To start a photography business, you need at least a business license, and if using a trade name, a dba filing and a federal id. Selling prints, albums, and gifts requires a seller's permit.

1. Business License

You first need a business license. You can obtain one here online. The requirements to obtain one depend on your location. For example, if you are in an apartment or house, you need to show the lease or ownership papers. In most cases, you just need to pay a flat annual tax which is about $50 in addition to our fee to obtain it.

2. Assumed Business Name

In short, if you use a trade name to run your photography business, you will need a fictitious business name filing.

3. Sellers Permit

If you sell paper prints, you will need to charge tax for the photos. This needs a sellers permit.

4. Business Insurance

Normally, a small photography business insurance will cover most of what the bond covers and you do not need a bond insurance.

So, if you are starting a small business and you are worried about getting a bond, get business insurance but you really do not need even insurance. On the other hand, if you have the extra money, go ahead and get small business insurance.

5. Marketing Materials As a home-based photography business, you need to market yourself. A website and business cards as well as flyers are helpful. On your website, show your work and provide a way to contact the photographer. For example, a phone number and an email and or fax.

DBA DOING BUSINESS AS

A(n) Photography business doing business under an assumed business name in
Vermilion Parish
i.e. you are a business that uses a DBA doing business as trade name to trade that is other than the full legal (first and last -- full name) name of a sole proprietor or a name other than the LLC or Corporation business name need a(n) assumed business name certificate.
E.g. you venture into a(n)
Photography
business and you give it a trade name such as "Excellence
Photography
& Associates". You will need to register an assumed business name certificate.

LLC LIMITED LIABILITY CO.

Instead of filing a fictitious business name DBA Filing (about $49 plus state and legal newspaper publication fees) in
Kaplan LA, form a(n) LA LLC .
Filing a DBA is not required if you will set up an LLC or form a Corporation.
There is a cicrcumstance that you may not need to register a trade name and that is when you use your full name as a business name if you use your full legal name as a trade name.
Using any language that connotes additional owners in the name of the business makes filing a fictitious business name mandatory.

FEDERAL EIN

Note: All businesses need a federal tax ID number except sole proprietors that are not employers and are not independent contractors.
An independent contractor is a self employed business person that receives more than $600 per year from anyone of his or her clients.IRS rule: The client must issue a 1099 form to the independent contractor and the independent contractor must have a federal tax ID.
However, even sole owners may obtain a federal ID and use it as a business tax ID instead of using their own social security number as a
business tax ID number. However, all other licenses that apply to sole proprietors as discussed here are requited regardless of getting
a federal tax ID number.

"C" OR "S" CORPORATION

If you do form an llc or incorporate (about $49 plus state fees for most states) your Photography business instead of just filing a fictitious business name (dba),
that insurs that you don't have personal liability for debts and civile liabililty arising from your business dealings and you will not have to record the Kaplan business name.
Instead of just registering your Vermilion Parish assumed business name (our fee includes assumed business name registration and legal newspaper publication) you can choose to setup a corporation in
LA or form an LA LLC (starts @ $49 plus state fee for most states & includes bylaws for the corporation and Limited Liability operating agreement for the LLC that is required to open a business bank account). .

305299 If your business includes any items or merchandise you provide with the service you will need a sales tax ID to buy them tax exempt and sell them retail to your customers separate from your service.
If you sell food prepare to have a health inspection and get a permit to collect sales taxes.
There is no better way to keep track of your busienss expenses than a business debit or credit card. Note that if you use a trade name, you will need to register a DBA before the bank will open a business bank account.

Say you provide services for someone and you collect more than $600 per year. You need a 1099 and a federal ID EIN to do so..
If you are a partnership you need to file a DBA and obtain a federal ID.
Your trade may require that you obtain a state license. That is separate from your business license and the seller's permit.
Remember that even if a business name is your domain name, it must be registered with a fictitious business name.
Today, all business need a website that has their information and contacts.

If your clients will buy your services or products online, you will eventually have to set up a shopping cart either integrated with your website or separately.
Check if the economy is doing good and if you have customers, start your business.
Business cards may help you generate more business.

Do you have to be certified to get a business license for welding in North carolina. I'll only be welding small items , for homeowners and farmers. What about things like insurance etc in regards to producing items like handrails for buildings and roll cages for trucks - So in a nutshell, I'll be selling custom made metal workings - In some cases there will be no product exchanged, only labor services. How do I determine the business type I.e.: llc or whatever??

What permits do i need to operate an arcade that sells food as well as offers merchandise? We also plan to have very low rates for our guests and plan to sell and buy arcade machines.I work on virtually all aspects of computers from repair to CAD drawings, animation, web sites, and custom computer builds.

If you are a partnership means you are a business entity with multiple owners and thus you will need a dba and a federal ID.
If you are a service but you also use parts you will need a sellers permit also called a resale license or resale certificate to collect taxes and or buy wholesale.
Any businesses that sell prepared food need a sellers license.
you need a sales tax ID.

Be optimistic in starting your business but pessimistic as to sales projections at least in the beginning.

If you are a professional such as an architect or doctor you also need a professional license from the state.
Is there a real demand for your products? After you start, contrate on marketing because you will need it to survive.
IMPORTANT: that is a biggie! DO NOT.. REPEAT... DO NOT... sign a long term lease contract. You will be liable to pay the rent and your personal assets may be seized to do so.
Do everything you can to sign a lease contract as a corporation. If you sing as a sole owner or you personally guarantee the lease you will have to pay it. Set up an LLC or incorporate.

Chose the right business for you. You can take an ability test at any community college to find out what your streangths and weeknesses are.

ALL BUSINESSES NEED A Photography BUSINESS LICENSE:

ONLINE, HOME AND MOBILE BUSINESSES INCLUDED

LLCs, CORPs, SOLE PROPR. AND PARTNERSHIPS INCLUDED

LLC FAQS

Q: Would an LLC be better than filing a fictitious business name?

A: If you desire more business prestige for market presence you may want to set up an LLC. E.g. the fictitious business name (DBA) is .
deas XYZtch PhotographyCo.
this company name as well as any other business name must be filed with the clerk as a trade name registration and that requires a filing fee to be registered.

Just recording an assumed business name does nothing to keep the name exclusive nor does it avoid personal liability for the business owners. Only setting up a limited liability company (LLC) will protect the name at the state level and also protect the owners of personal liability.
It is perhaps a better choice to just incorporate for the same or a little higher fee because you will also have corporate protection for the business name and personal vs business liabilities.

E.g. if your business has debts the lender can sue you personally to obtain a judgment vs your personal assets as opposed in the case you were a corporation where the lender could only sue the corporation directly and if the limited liability company (LLC) had no assets the lender could get nothing.

Note that once you incorporate no one can register the limited liability company (LLC) name at the state level.

Q: What if I am a very small company? Do I need a limited liability company (LLC)?A: You do not need an LLC. However

Q: Does an LLC without employees need a tax ID number?A: An LLC without employees may not need a tax ID number but an LLC with more than one owner does need one. In addition if the LLC is engaged in selling taxable items such as clothing it will need a sales state tax ID number in addition to any other tax ID.

Q: What if I an an out of state business? Do I still need to register and obtain a limited liability company (LLC)? A: Unless you have a location in the state you sell it is not required to form an LLC there.

Q: If I order a limited liability company (LLC) online how long will it take before I receive it?

A: Normally we will have to wait for a corporate certificate if you are a corporation othewise we normally obtain it on the same day you order it.

Q: Do I need to obtain a federal or state tax ID number before forming a limited liability company (LLC) or getting other licenses?A:

Q: What are the benefits of havin a DUNS number? A: You can use it to your benefit by providing favorable business information to make it more likely to get a loan from a lender bank.

Q: Do I need to pay sales tax to the state as an LLC?A: Paying sales tax depends on your state. For example in Oregon you dont need to pay sales tax but you still need a resale certificate to buy from other states wholesale products.
